Just finished up the sermon series entitled, “God’s Way Still Works: Dating, Marriage and Sex.” I must say, this series has been rewarding and challenging for me personally. I just believe, it is imperative that the Church begin to address the unhealthy relationships that exist in our pews and pulpits.
In the African American community AIDS/HIV is the leading cause of death for African American women between the ages of 21-39. African Americans lead or come close to leading predominately every negative category as it pertains to sexual transmitted diseases. Only 15% of all African American children are born in a household with both parents. These statistics and others are the results of man refusing to do things God’s way.
The people of Christ cannot shy away from our responsibility to proclaim an unpopular message in this modern “Sodom and Gomorrah – self centered – devilish – anti God – Dr. Phil/Oprah humanistic – sensualistic – drop it like it’s hot – apple bottom wearing era” that we live in. I contend to you, that God’s precepts are not outdated, but will and still work in a day like ours.
I pray that this series has been a blessing to you. I realize that the seven sermons only scratched the surface, but I’m grateful to see how the Holy Spirit is working in the hearts of the people at the Mount!
